Hi, folks.

Experts gave us the lowdown on the latest celeb trend, and we tried it ourselves, too!
So to learn more about lymphatic massage techniques, I contacted physical therapistLaureen McVickerofFemina Physical Therapy.
To start, what exactlyisa lymphatic drainage massage?
Who would be a good candidate for a lymphatic drainage massage?
According to Laureen, individuals with a compromised lymphatic system are the best candidates.
First things first: It wasa lotgentler than I expected.
I was pretty exhausted, my limbs remained relatively heavy, and I peed a lot!
I slept well that night.
Exercise in any form: stretching, strengthening, walking, jumping, etc.
Movement that facilitates muscle pumping, the best way to move the lymphatic fluid throughout the body.
